CommerceTel Corporation
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
 
1.           Reverse Merger Transaction and Accounting
 
Reverse Merger Transaction
 
On November 2, 2010, CommerceTel Corporation (the “Company”) acquired CommerceTel, Inc., which was wholly-owned by CommerceTel Canada Corporation (“CTel Canada” or “our former parent”), in a reverse merger, or the “Merger”.  Pursuant to the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of CommerceTel, Inc. common stock were converted, at an exchange ratio of 0.7268-for-1, into an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and CommerceTel, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  The holders of the Company’s common stock as of immediately prior to the Merger held an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, common share and weighted average common share basic and diluted information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the exchange ratio in the Merger.
 
CommerceTel, Inc. was originally incorporated in Nevada in 2005.  The Company was originally incorporated as Ares Ventures Corporation in Nevada in 2008, and was renamed CommerceTel Corporation in 2010.
 
Reverse Merger Accounting
 
Immediately following the consummation of the Merger, the: (i) former security holders of CommerceTel, Inc. common stock had an approximate 56% voting interest in the Company and the Company stockholders retained an approximate 44% voting interest, (ii) former executive management team of CommerceTel, Inc. remained as the only continuing executive management team for the Company, and (iii) Company’s ongoing operations consist solely of the ongoing operations of CommerceTel, Inc.  Based primarily on these factors, the Merger was accounted for as a reverse merger and a recapitalization in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or "GAAP".  As a result, these condensed financial statements reflect the (i) historical results of CommerceTel, Inc. prior to the Merger, (ii) combined results of the Company following the Merger, and (iii) acquired assets and liabilities at their historical cost. In connection with the Merger, the Company received net assets of $16,496.
 
On December 7, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company resolved to change the Company’s fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31, effective immediately, to coincide with the fiscal year end of its wholly owned subsidiary CommerceTel, Inc.
 
2.           Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
 
The Company is a provider of mobile marketing technology that enables major brands and enterprises to engage consumers via their mobile phones and other smart devices.  Interactive electronic communications with consumers is a complex process involving communication networks and software.  The Company removes this complexity through its suite of services and technologies thereby enabling brands, marketers, and content owners to communicate with their customers and consumers in general.

Principles of Accounting and Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that are necessary, which are of a normal and recurring nature, for a fair presentation for the periods presented of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.  The accompanying condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be anticipated for the entire year ending December 31, 2011, or any other period.

Going Concern

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern.  Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.   However, we have incurred continued losses, have a net working capital deficiency, and have an accumulated deficit of approximately $9.4 million as of June 30, 2011.  These factors among others create a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  We are dependent upon sufficient future revenues, additional sales of our securities or obtaining debt financing in order to meet our operating cash requirements.  Barring our generation of revenues in excess of our costs and expenses or our obtaining additional funds from equity or debt financing, or receipt of significant licensing prepayments, we will not have sufficient cash to continue to fund the operations of the Company through December 31, 2011.  These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In response to our Company’s cash needs, we received additional equity investments pursuant to a private placement totaling $982,968 as of August 15, 2011 ($555,501 as of June 30, 2011).  Longer term, we anticipate that we will continue to raise additional equity financing through the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock in order to finance our future investing and operating cash flow needs.  However, there can be no assurance that such financings will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates used are those related to stock-based compensation, the valuation of the derivative liabilities, asset impairments, the valuation and useful lives of depreciable tangible and certain intangible assets, the fair value of common stock used in acquisitions of businesses, the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in acquisitions of businesses, and the valuation allowance of deferred tax assets.  Management believes that these estimates are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Purchase Accounting

The Company accounts for acquisitions pursuant to ASC No. 805, Business Combinations.  The Company records all acquired tangible and intangible assets and all assumed liabilities based upon their estimated fair values.

Cash

The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts.
 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, cash payment obligation, derivative liabilities, and other current liabilities. Fair value estimates of these instruments are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information. These estimates may be subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments are generally considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments or because they have been adjusted to fair value on the reporting date.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. The Company grants unsecured credit to substantially all of its customers.  Ongoing credit evaluations are performed and potential credit losses are charged to operations at the time the account receivable is estimated to be uncollectible.  Since the Company cannot necessarily predict future changes in the financial stability of our customers, the Company cannot guarantee that its reserves will continue to be adequate.

From time to time, the Company may have a limited number of customers with individually large amounts due.  Any unanticipated change in one of the customer’s credit worthiness could have a material effect on our results of operations in the period in which such changes or events occurred.  The Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $6,203 and $0 at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Equipment

Equipment is recorded at cost, consists primarily of computer equipment and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets (generally five years or less).  Costs incurred for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and expenditures for major replacements and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated remaining useful lives.  Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $5,876 and $1,669, respectively.  Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $7,160 and $3,338, respectively.

Intangible Assets

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company acquired U.S. Patent Number 6,788,769 from eMediacy, Inc. for cash and 14,286 shares of common stock, and incurred costs to prosecute other patent applications.  The Company capitalized $92,858 during this period, and is amortizing the costs on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of ten years.  Also see Note 3.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Purchased intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which range from five to ten years. The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. The Company’s management currently believes there is no impairment of its long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products under development will continue. Either of these could result in future impairment of long-lived assets.
 

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks.
 
The Company reviews the terms of the common stock, warrants and convertible debt it issues to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments.  In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument.
 
Bifurcated embedded derivatives are initially recorded at fair value and are then revalued at each reporting date with changes in the fair value reported as non-operating income or expense. When the equity or convertible debt instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds received are first allocated to the fair value of all the bifurcated derivative instruments.  The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the host instruments themselves, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value.

The discount from the face value of the convertible debt, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to interest expense, using the effective interest method.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s “C4” Mobile Marketing and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform is a hosted solution, as is the newly acquired Txtstation Control Center platform.  The Company generates revenue from licensing its software to clients in its software as a service (Saas) model, per-message and per-minute transactional fees, and customized professional services.  The Company recognizes license fees over the period of the contract, service fees as the services are performed, and per-message or per-minute transaction revenue when the transaction takes place.  The Company recognizes revenue at the time that the services are rendered, the selling price is fixed, and collection is reasonably assured, provided no significant obligations remain.  The Company considers authoritative guidance on multiple deliverables in determining whether each deliverable represents a separate unit of accounting.  As for the newly acquired Mobivity platform, which is also a hosted solution, revenue is principally derived from subscription fees from our customers.  The subscription fee is billed on a month to month basis with no contractual term and is collected by credit card.  Revenue is recognized at the time that the services are rendered and the selling price is fixed with a set range of plans.  Cash received in advance of the performance of services is recorded as deferred revenue.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 Stock Compensation, which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under such provisions, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense, under the straight-line method, over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).  In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, the Company estimates forfeitures at the time of grant and revises the estimates if necessary, if actual forfeiture rates differ from those estimates. Stock options issued to employees are accounted for at their estimated fair value determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

The Company accounts for equity instruments, including restricted stock or stock options, issued to non-employees in accordance with authoritative guidance for equity based payments to non-employees. Stock options issued to non-employees are accounted for at their estimated fair value determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of options granted to non-employees is re-measured as they vest, and the resulting increase in value, if any, is recognized as expense during the period the related services are rendered. Restricted stock issued to non-employees is accounted for at its estimated fair value as it vests.


Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The Company is required to record all components of comprehensive income (loss) in the financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. Net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss), including foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on investments, are reported, net of their related tax effect, to arrive at comprehensive income (loss). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the comprehensive loss was equal to the net loss.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Net loss per share is presented as both basic and diluted net loss per share. Basic net loss per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, shares subject to repurchase and warrants. Diluted net loss per share includes the impact of potentially dilutive securities. During 2011 and 2010, the Company had securities outstanding which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future, but were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. These outstanding securities consist of 2,383,750 outstanding options and 370,344 outstanding warrants. In addition, see potential issuances associated with warrants and convertible debt in Notes 4 and 5.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 
In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This update clarifies the application of certain existing fair value measurement guidance and expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. This update is effective on a prospective basis for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011, which for the Company is January 1, 2012. The Company does not expect that adopting this update will have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
3.           Acquisitions
 
Txtstation Acquisition

On April 1, 2011, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the Txtstation interactive mobile marketing platform and services business from Adsparq Limited (“Adsparq”).  The purchase price for the acquisition was 2,125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, $26,184 in cash at closing and $250,000 of scheduled cash payments.  The $250,000 of scheduled cash payments are due as follows:  $25,000 payable on the 60th day following closing and the balance is payable in $25,000 installments at the end of each of the next nine 30-day periods thereafter.  The Company assumed none of Adsparq’s liabilities in the transaction, except for the performance obligation of unearned revenue.  For a period of one year following the closing of the transaction, half of the shares of common stock issued to Adsparq will be held in escrow as security for Adsparq’s obligations under the agreement.
 
In connection with the transaction, the Company also issued 300,000 shares of its common stock to the controlling stockholder of Adsparq in consideration of certain indemnification obligations and other agreements.  For one year following the closing of the transaction,  the shareholder has agreed not to, directly or indirectly, transfer, donate, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate, grant a security interest in or otherwise dispose or attempt to dispose of all or any portion of shares issued to it (or any interest therein).

The Company completed the acquisition in furtherance of its strategy to acquire small, privately owned enterprises in the mobile marketing sector through an asset purchase structure. This acquisition was consistent with the Company's purchase price model in which equity will represent most of the purchase price plus a small cash component and, in some cases, the assumption of specific liabilities.

 
The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination and the Company valued all assets and liabilities acquired at their fair values on the date of acquisition. An independent valuation expert (Vantage Point Advisors) was hired to assist the Company in determining these fair values. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the acquired entity were recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition.
 
Actual results of operations of Txtstation are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The allocation of the purchase price to assets and liabilities based upon fair value determinations was as follows:
 
Current assets
  $ 10,184  
Equipment
    31,230

Present value of scheduled cash payments
    241,960  
Common stock
    2,425,000  
        Total purchase price
  $ 2,693,144  
 
The $241,960 obligation recorded at closing, represented the present value of the $250,000 payments over the subsequent periods.  The Company used a discount rate of 6.25% in calculating the net present value of the scheduled cash payments.  The discount rate was based on the Company’s estimated cost of capital. Under the effective interest method, the Company accretes the scheduled cash payment liability to the stated amount payable ($250,000). Accretion of the scheduled cash payment obligation totaled $2,464 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. Accretion of the cash payment obligation was charged to interest expense in accordance with FASB ASC 480.
 
Mobivity Acquisition
 
On April 8, 2011, the Company entered into an acquisition agreement with Mobivity, LLC and Mobile Visions, Inc. to acquire the assets of their Mobivity interactive mobile marketing platform and services business.  The Company concurrently completed the acquisition effective as of April 1, 2011.

The purchase price for the acquisition was 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, $64,969 in cash paid at closing and a secured subordinated promissory note of CommerceTel, Inc. in the principal amount of $606,064.  The promissory note earns interest at 6.25% per annum; is payable in six quarterly installments of $105,526 (inclusive of interest) starting May 1, 2011; matures on August 1, 2012; is secured by the acquired assets of the Mobivity business; and is subordinated to the Company’s obligations under its outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Bridge Notes Due November 3, 2011 (see Note 5).  Mobivity, LLC was granted a security interest in the acquired assets, subordinated only to the Company's senior debt (Bridge Loan), and a majority of the Bridge Lenders consented to the junior security interest.  There were no liabilities assumed in the acquisition.

In determining the value of common stock issued as consideration in the acquisition of Txtstation and Mobivity, the Company engaged a third party valuation expert (Vantage Point Advisors).  The Company determined that the trading price of the Company’s common stock was not an accurate indicator of fair value.  The Company determined that the fair market value of the Company’s common stock was $1.00 per share as of March 31, 2011.  This valuation was based on the private placement transaction that occurred in late March 2011 where 140,000 units were sold.  The price of the unit sold in the private placement was $1.50.  The unit price of $1.50 was bifurcated for the value of common stock, the warrant, an embedded derivative related to down round protection on common stock, and an embedded derivative related to down round protection on the warrant.   The Company used a Monte-Carlo simulation to calculate the prices of the common stock and warrants with and without down round protection.  The difference of with and without yields the value of each embedded option.  Key assumptions used in the valuation model included a volatility factor of 65%, risk-free interest rate of 0.17%, and probability of future private placement financings of 80%.  The valuation analysis resulted in an estimated fair market value of $1.00 per share.
 

The Company recorded $24,000 in acquisition-related costs for accounting, legal and other costs in connection with the two acquisitions within the general and administrative expenses in its condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. 
 
The following summary presents unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as if the Txtstation and Mobivity acquisitions described above had occurred on January 1, 2011 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 as if the Txtstation and Mobivity acquisitions described above had occurred on January 1, 2010.   The following unaudited pro forma financial information gives effect to certain adjustments, including the reduction in compensation expense related to non-recurring executive salary expense and non-recurring acquisition related costs incurred by the Company, the amortization of acquired intangible assets and interest expense on acquisition related debt. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred had the acquisition been consummated as of the date indicated, nor are they necessarily indicative of future operating results.

4.           Derivative Liabilities

As discussed in Note 5, the Company issued convertible notes payable that provide for the issuance of warrants to purchase its common stock at a future date.  The conversion term for the convertible notes is variable based on certain factors.  The number of warrants to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock.  As of June 30, 2011, the number of warrants to be issued remains indeterminate.  Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion option and warrants / shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date.
 
As discussed in Note 6, the Company commenced a private placement in late March 2011.  The private placement structure consists of a series of identical subscription agreements for the sale of units comprised of shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $1.50 per share and an equivalent number of warrants at an exercise price of $2.00.    Both the common shares and the warrants contain anti-dilutive, or down round, price protection.  The down round protection for the common shares terminates on the earlier of the date on which an effective registration statement is filed with the SEC covering the shares, or the shares become freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.  The down round protection for the warrant terminates when the warrant expires or is exercised.  Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives and ASC 815-40 Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, the Company determined that the down round price protection on the common stock represents a derivative liability.  Additionally, the Company recorded a derivative liability for the warrant.
  
The fair values of the Company’s derivative liabilities were estimated at the issuance date and are revalued at each subsequent reporting date, using a Monte Carlo simulation.  At June 30, 2011, the Company recorded derivative liabilities of $329,479.  The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 of $159,263 and $206,956 was reported as other income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the process of closing the second quarter, management of the Company discovered an error when recording the private placement transaction which took place in March 2011.  The Company previously incorrectly determined that the down round price protection on the common stock represented a future obligation requiring liability classification in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.  This was based on the incorrect interpretation of ASC 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.


Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives and ASC 815-40 Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, the Company determined that the down round price protection on the common stock represents a derivative liability.  As discussed in Note 3, the value ascribed to the down round price protection on the common stock, impacted the estimated fair market value of the Company’s common stock.  The estimated fair market value of the Company’s common stock changed from $1.25 to $1.00 as of March 31, 2011, and accordingly, the Company re-valued the stock based compensation and derivative valuations as of March 31, 2011.
 
With these corrections, it was determined that the March 31, 2011 financial statements had the following misstatements:  Current liabilities were overstated by $266,812 while stockholders’ equity was understated by $266,812.  The net loss was overstated by $202,759 with $61,766 being overstated in stock based compensation within operating expenses and $140,993 being overstated in change in fair value for derivative liabilities.   There were no changes to reported cashflows for any periods reported. The Company concluded that the effects of the changes are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011.  The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2011 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 are properly stated.
 
5.           Bridge Financing, Notes Payable and Accrued Interest

Bridge Financing

From November 2, 2010 through March 31, 2011, the Company issued to a number of accredited investors a series of its 10% Senior Secured Convertible Bridge Note (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $1,010,000 (the “Financing”).  The Notes accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum.  The entire principal amount evidenced by the Notes (the “Principal Amount”) plus all accrued and unpaid interest is due on the earlier of (i) the date the Company completes a financing transaction for the offer and sale of shares of common stock (including securities convertible into or exercisable for its common stock), in an aggregate amount of no less than 125% of the principal amounts evidenced by the Notes (a “Qualifying Financing”), and (ii) November 3, 2011. If the Notes are held to maturity, the Company pays, at the option of the holder: i) cash or ii) in securities to be issued by the Company in the Qualifying Financing at the same price paid by other investors.

On the maturity date of the Notes, in addition to the repayment of the Principal Amount and all accrued and unpaid interest, the Company will issue to each holder of the Notes, at each such holder’s option, (i) three year warrants to purchase that number of shares of its common stock equal to the Principal Amount plus all accrued and unpaid interest divided by the per share purchase price of the common stock offered and sold in the Qualifying Financing (the “Offering Price”) which warrants shall be exercisable at the Offering Price, or (ii) that number of shares of common stock equal to the product arrived at by multiplying (x) the Principal Amount plus all accrued and unpaid interest divided by the Offering Price and (y) 0.33.

The Company’s obligations under the Notes are secured by all of the assets of the Company, including all shares of CommerceTel, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary.

WFG Investments, Inc., a registered broker dealer, was paid a placement agent fee in the amount of $40,000 which was capitalized as deferred financing costs, and is being amortized over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method.  The Company recorded $10,000 and $20,000 of expense for the amortization of the deferred financing costs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.
 
The following table summarizes information relative to all of the outstanding Notes at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

In accordance with ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options, the Company recorded a discount of $1,876 for the variable conversion feature and a discount of $320,424 for the warrants / shares to be issued.  The discounts will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method.  The Company recorded $80,291 and $159,101 of interest expense for the amortization of the note discounts during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.

In accordance with ASC 815-15, the Company determined that the variable conversion feature and the warrants / shares to be issued represented embedded derivative features, and these are shown as derivative liabilities on the balance sheet.  See Note 4.

The Company calculated the fair value of the compound embedded derivatives associated with the convertible notes payable utilizing a complex, customized Monte Carlo simulation model suitable to value path dependant American options. The model uses the risk neutral methodology adapted to value corporate securities. This model utilized subjective and theoretical assumptions that can materially affect fair values from period to period.

Mobivity Note

As partial consideration for the acquisition of Mobivity, the Company issued a secured subordinated promissory note in the principal amount of $606,064.  The promissory note earns interest at 6.25% per annum; is payable in six quarterly installments of $105,526 (inclusive of interest) starting May 1, 2011; matures on August 1, 2012; is secured by the acquired assets of the Mobivity business; and is subordinated to the Company’s obligations under its outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Bridge Notes Due November 3, 2011.  Mobivity, LLC was granted a security interest in the acquired assets, subordinated only to the Company's senior debt (Bridge Loan), and a majority of the Bridge Lenders consented to the junior security interest.

6.           Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit)
 
Common Stock
 
The Company commenced a private placement in late March 2011.  The private placement structure consists of a series of identical subscription agreements for the sale of units comprised of shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $1.50 per share and an equivalent number of warrants at an exercise price of $2.00.   From March 2011 to June 30, 2011, the Company issued 370,334 shares of common stock at $1.50 per share for cash and issued a four-year warrant to purchase 370,334 shares of common stock at $2.00 per share to several accredited investors raising gross proceeds of $555,501.  Both the common shares and the warrants contain anti-dilutive, or down round, price protection.  The down round protection for the common shares terminates on the earlier of the date on which an effective registration statement is filed with the SEC covering the shares, or the shares become freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.  The down round protection for the warrant terminates when the warrant expires or is exercised.  The Company determined that the down round price protection on the common stock represents a derivative.  See Note 4 for further discussion.  Additionally, the Company recorded a derivative liability for the warrant as discussed in Note 4.  
  
The Company recorded the par value of the common stock in equity ($370), recorded the fair market value of the down round price protection on the common stock as a derivative liability ($56,333), recorded the fair market value of the warrant as a derivative liability ($144,272), and recorded the remainder of the proceeds as additional paid-in capital.  See Note 4.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company has 21,509,620 common shares outstanding.
 
Stock-based Compensation
 
CTel Canada Plan
 
Certain employees, directors and consultants of the Company (the “Optionees”) received stock options exercisable for the common stock of (and issued by) our former parent company, CTel Canada.  Effective with the Merger, all of the unvested options became fully vested and the related stock-based compensation was recognized in 2010.   The Company recorded stock-based compensation of $37,360 and $68,651 in operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, related to stock option grants made to the Optionees.

For purposes of accounting for stock-based compensation, the fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing formula, and the expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.  The Company granted one option during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and used the following valuation assumptions to determine the fair value of the option at the grant date: expected volatility of 152.96%; risk free interest rate of 0.94%; forfeiture rate of 0.0%; expected dividend rate of 0.0%; and expected term of three years.

2010 Incentive Stock Option Plan

On December 24, 2010, the Company adopted the 2010 Incentive Stock Option Plan (“the 2010 Plan”), subject to shareholder approval within one year.  If shareholder approval is not obtained within one year, incentive stock options granted under the 2010 Plan convert to non-qualified stock options.  The 2010 Plan permits the Company to grant up to 3,124,000 shares of common stock and options to purchase shares of common stock.  The 2010 Plan is designed to retain directors, executives and selected employees and consultants and reward them for making major contributions to the success of the Company.  These objectives are accomplished by making long-term incentive awards under the 2010 Plan thereby providing participants with a proprietary interest in the growth and performance of the Company.

The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees with those of its shareholders.  Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price that equals the fair market value of the Company's stock at the date of grant.  These option awards generally vest based on four years of continuous service and have five-year or 10-year contractual terms.


A summary of option activity under the 2010 Plan as of June 30, 2011 and changes during the six months then ended is presented below:

The aggregate intrinsic value of employee and non-employee stock options outstanding and stock options exercisable at June 30, 2011 was $1,466,388 and $225,842, respectively.
 
As of June 30, 2011, total estimated compensation cost related to non-vested employee and non-employee stock options not yet recognized was $779,911, which is expected to be recognized over the next 1.56 years on a weighted-average basis.

Expense Information

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to employees, directors and non-employees based upon estimated fair values.  The Company recorded stock-based compensation in operating expenses for employees and non-employees of $33,295 and $272,698, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.  The Company recorded stock-based compensation in operating expenses for employees and non-employees of $37,360 and $68,651, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model in determining its option expense.  The weighted-average estimated fair value of employee stock options and non-employee stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $0.46 per share.  There were no options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2011.  The Company periodically revalues non-employee stock options as they vest.  The ranges of assumptions used during the six months ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
 
   
June 30, 2011
 
   
Employee Options
   
Non-Employee Options
 
Expected volatility
   
60
%
   
60
%
Risk-free interest rate
 
1.47% to 2.31
%    
       1.76% to 2.24
%
Forfeiture rate
   
0
%
   
0
%
Expected dividend rate
   
0
%
   
0
%
Expected life (yrs)
   
3.00 to 6.00
     
          4.00 to 5.00
 
 
The expected volatility is based on the weighted average of the historical volatility of publicly traded surrogates in the Company’s peer group.
 
The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon published interest rates appropriate for the expected life of the Company’s employee stock options.
 
The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history of not paying dividends and no future expectations of dividend payouts.


The expected life of the stock options represents the weighted-average period that the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and was determined based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior as influenced by changes to the terms of its stock-based awards.
 
Warrants

As discussed in Note 5, the Company is obligated to issue warrants or shares pursuant to its Bridge Financing.  The number of warrants / shares issuable pursuant to the agreements is not known at this time.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company issued warrants for the purchase of 370,344 shares of common stock at $2.00 per share.  The warrants are exercisable for four years from the date of issuance, and contains anti-dilution, or down round, price protection as long as the warrant remains outstanding.

No other warrants are issued or outstanding as of June 30, 2011.

7.           Income Taxes
 
The Company maintains deferred tax assets that reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. These deferred tax assets include net operating loss carryforwards, deferred revenue and stock-based compensation.  In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  The Company considers projected future taxable income and planning strategies in making this assessment.  Based on the level of historical operating results and projections for the taxable income for the future, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to zero.  There can be no assurance that the Company will ever be able to realize the benefit of some or all of the federal and state loss carryforwards, either due to ongoing operating losses or due to ownership changes, which limit the usefulness of the loss carryforwards.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company has available net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $7,600,000 for federal income tax purposes, which will start to expire in 2026.  The net operating loss carryforwards for state purposes are approximately $7,600,000 and will start to expire in 2016.

The Company has determined that during 2010 it experienced a “change of ownership” as defined by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.  As such, utilization of net operating loss carryforwards and credits generated before the 2010 change in ownership will be limited to approximately $207,000 per year until such carryforwards are fully utilized.  The pre-change net operating loss carryforward was approximately $7,000,000.
 
8.           Fair Value Measurements
 
Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the authoritative guidance establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions. This hierarchy requires companies to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. On a recurring basis, the Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value, including its derivative liabilities.


At June 30, 2011, the Company recorded a liability related to the variable maturity feature and the future issuance of warrants / shares in connection with its Bridge Notes (See Note 5), and the common stock and warrants issued in the current year (See Notes 4 and 6) at the aggregate fair market value of $329,479 utilizing unobservable inputs.  The change in fair market value of these liabilities is included in other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.  The assumptions used in the Monte-Carlo simulation used to value the derivative liabilities involve expected volatility in the Company’s common stock, estimated probabilities related to the occurrence of a future financing, and interest rates.  As all the assumptions employed to measure this liability are based on management’s judgment using internal and external data, this fair value determination is classified in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
 
The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the derivative liabilities as of June 30, 2011:

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company negotiated settlement agreements with regards to previously recorded liabilities of $134,602.  The Company paid $20,051 to settle these liabilities, and recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $114,551 in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.


11.           Concentrations
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, one customer accounted for 12% and 38%, respectively, of our revenues.  At June 30, 2011, the accounts receivable balances for this customer totaled $3,496.  The loss of this customer could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business.

12.         Commitments and Contingencies
 
Litigation
 
In August 2008, the Company and certain employees, shareholders and directors (the “Plaintiffs”) initiated litigation against its former Chief Executive Officer (the “Defendant”) alleging criminal conduct against the financial interests and reputation of the Company.  The Defendant countersued the Company.  In December 2009, a judgment was entered in the Plaintiffs’ favor awarding damages and enjoining the Defendant from certain behavior prejudicial to the Company.  The Company has not recognized any gains from the damages that may be paid to the Company in the future due to the uncertainty of their ultimate realization.  Additionally, in a separate court action the Company has been enjoined against the payment of any amounts owed to the Defendant, including amounts due under a note payable noted above.

Other

At June 30, 2011, the Company was delinquent with respect to the payment of wages earned by current employees due to an insufficient balance of cash on hand at the time the payrolls were due to be paid to the employees.  Ahead of the Merger, employees agreed to convert the majority of the delinquent payments to equity in CommerceTel, Inc.  The employees have agreed to continue their employment in the expectation of eventual payment of the remaining amounts due.  It is the Company’s full intention to satisfy or reach a settlement with all past due balances outstanding, which total approximately $71,000 at June 30, 2011.  This is included in accrued and deferred personnel compensation on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2011.
 
13.           Subsequent Events

 2011 Private Placement

The Company commenced a private placement in late March 2011, and believes the process will continue until late September 2011.  During July and August, 2011, the Company has raised gross proceeds of $427,467. The private placement structure consists of a series of identical subscription agreements for the sale of units comprised of shares of our common stock at a price of $1.50 per share and an equivalent number of warrants at an exercise price of $2.00.  Both the shares and the warrants are price protected by the Company. The price protection obligates the Company to issue to the investors an additional number of shares in the event that common shares are issued at a price below $1.50 until the shares become freely trading.  See Note 6.


BoomText Acquisition
 
On August 9, 2011, the Company completed the transactions contemplated under an asset purchase agreement dated June 9, 2011 (the “Agreement”) with Digimark, LLC (“Digimark”) to acquire substantially all of the assets of its BoomText interactive mobile marketing services business.  The effective date of the transaction was August 1, 2011. In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, as amended, the purchase price for the acquisition consists of the following components:
 
·  
519,540 shares of the Company’s common stock  issued at closing;
 
·  
$119,392 in cash paid at closing;
 
·  
A secured subordinated promissory note in the principal amount of $175,000 issued by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, CommerceTel, Inc.  This note earns interest at 6.25% per annum; is payable in full on March 31, 2012; is secured by all of the assets of CommerceTel, Inc.; and is subordinated to the Company’s obligations under its outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Bridge Notes Due November 3, 2011;
 
·  
An unsecured subordinated promissory note in the principal amount of $194,658 issued by CommerceTel, Inc.  This note does not bear interest; is payable in installments (varying in amount) from August 2011 through October 2012; and is subordinated to the Company’s obligations under its outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Bridge Notes Due November 3, 2011; and
 
·  
An earn-out payment (payable 20 months after closing of the transaction) of a number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to (a) 1.5, multiplied by the Company’s net revenue from acquired customers and customer prospects for the twelve-month period beginning six months after the closing date, divided by (b) the average of the volume-weighted average trading prices of the Company’s common stock for the 25 trading days immediately preceding the earn-out payment (subject to a collar of $1.49 and $2.01 per share).
 
The purchase price is subject to adjustment based on the amount of realizable net working capital (cash and collected accounts receivable, minus assumed liabilities) the Company acquired in the transaction.
 
The Company also assumed an office lease obligation and certain of Digimark’s accounts payable.
 
For one year following the closing of the transaction, 50% of the shares of common stock issued to Digimark at closing will be held in escrow as security for its indemnification obligations in the transaction.
 
The Company completed the acquisition in furtherance of its strategy to acquire small, privately owned enterprises in the mobile marketing sector through an asset purchase structure. This acquisition was consistent with the Company's purchase price model in which equity will represent most of the purchase price plus a small cash component and, in some cases, the assumption of specific liabilities.
 
The valuation analysis for the acquired tangible and intangible assets, and the equity component of the purchase price, is not complete at this time. It is anticipated that this analysis will be completed before September 30, 2011 and the final purchase accounting will be reflected in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2011.  The Company does not have the required quarterly revenue and net income/loss information at this time and therefore will disclose such information in future filings.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We continually evaluate our estimates and judgments, the most critical of which are those related to stock-based compensation, derivative liabilities, asset impairments, valuation and useful lives of depreciable tangible and certain intangible assets, the fair value of common stock used in acquisitions of businesses, the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in acquisitions of businesses, and and income taxes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Materially different results can occur as circumstances change and additional information becomes known.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, there were no significant changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Note 2 to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 contained in our 2010 Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC, except for ASC No. 805, Business Combinations, which is applicable to the acquisition of businesses.  Pursuant to ASC No. 805, the Company records all acquired tangible and intangible assets and all assumed liabilities based upon their estimated fair values.

Results of Operations

The following describes certain line items set forth in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010
 
Revenues

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased $348,009, or 170%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010.  The increase is primarily attributed to the acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation on April 1, 2011, which generated additional revenue of $162,000 and $295,000, respectively.  This additional revenue was partially offset by the loss of five clients during 2010, and a reduction in one-time custom software development revenue recognized in 2010 that did not repeat in 2011.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased approximately $75,612, or 73% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010.  This increase is primarily due to acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation partially offset by reduced SMS and IVR costs corresponding to the decrease in revenues from the CommercTel business, and a reduction of line costs stemming from reduced phone line inventory.


Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased by $272,397, or 268%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased to 68% from 50% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.  The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue is due to the acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation which generated higher gross margins.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $374,448 and $214,521, respectively.  Such expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, consulting costs and other expenses.  The increase of $159,927, or 75% was due to an increase in legal fees of $61,000, accounting of $29,000, and additional personnel and consulting expenses associated with the Share Exchange Agreement and our acquisition strategy.

Sales and Marketing Expense

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $200,822 and $101,447, respectively.  Such expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, sales travel, consulting costs and other expenses.  The increase of $99,375 or 98% was due to an increase in payroll and related employee expenses as we grew our business in 2011 through the acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation.

Engineering, Research, and Development Expense

Engineering, research, and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $161,291 and $97,543, respectively.  Such expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, consulting costs and other expenses.  The increase of $63,748 or 65% was due to an increase in payroll and related employee expenses as we grew our business in 2011 through the acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $124,741 and $1,669, respectively.  The current period expense includes $118,865 of amortization expense which is primarily due to the amortization of intangibles assets acquired in the Mobivity and Txtstation acquisitions.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased $121,407 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010.  Included in the current period interest expense is $82,755 of amortization of the note and cash payment obligation discounts recorded.  Also included in the current period interest expense is $10,000 of amortization of deferred financing costs.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded other income of $159,263 related to the change in the fair value of its derivative liabilities during the period.


Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010

Revenues

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased $264,923, or 62%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.  The increase is primarily attributed to the acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation on April 1, 2011, which generated additional revenue of $162,000 and $295,000, respectively.  This additional revenue was partially offset by the loss of five clients during 2010, and a reduction in one-time custom software development revenue recognized in 2010 that did not repeat in 2011.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased approximately $31,396, or 14% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.  This increase is primarily due to acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation partially offset by reduced SMS and IVR costs corresponding to the decrease in revenues from the CommercTel business, and a reduction of line costs stemming from reduced phone line inventory.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased by $233,527, or 116%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased to 63% from 47% for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  The increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenue is due to the acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation which generate higher gross margins.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $920,443 and $388,678, respectively.  Such expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, consulting costs and other expenses.  The increase of $531,765, or 137% was due to an increase in stock-based compensation of $226,000, and the remainder primarily relates to legal of $126,000, accounting of $82,000, and additional personnel and consulting expenses associated with the Share Exchange Agreement and our acquisition strategy.

Sales and Marketing Expense

Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $255,679 and $159,760, respectively.  Such expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, sales travel, consulting costs and other expenses.  The increase of $95,919 or 60% was due to an increase in payroll and related employee expenses as we grew our business in 2011 through the acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation.

Engineering, Research, and Development Expense

Engineering, research, and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $289,862 and $189,065, respectively.  Such expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, consulting costs and other expenses.  The increase of $100,797 or 53% was due to an increase in payroll and related employee expenses as we grew our business in 2011 through the acquisitions of Mobivity and Txtstation.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $126,778 and $3,338, respectively.  The current period expense includes $119,618 of amortization expense which is primarily due to the amortization of intangibles assets acquired in the Mobivity and Txtstation acquisitions.


Interest Expense

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 increased $210,162 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010.  Included in the current period interest expense is $161,565 of amortization of the note and cash payment obligation discounts recorded.  Also included in the current period interest expense is $20,000 of amortization of deferred financing costs.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded other income of $206,956 related to the change in the fair value of its derivative liabilities during the period.

Gain on Debt Extinguishment

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we negotiated settlement agreements with regards to previously recorded liabilities of approximately $135,000.  We paid $20,000 to settle these liabilities, and recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of approximately $115,000 in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had negative working capital of approximately $2.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.  Our cash balances as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were approximately $23,000 and $373,000, respectively.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Our operating activities resulted in net cash used for operations of $599,452 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to net cash used for operations of $243,998 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

The net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 reflects a net loss of $1,194,403, which was increased by the change in fair market value of our derivative liabilities of $206,956, and which was partially offset by stock-based compensation of $272,698, depreciation and amortization of $126,778, amortization of deferred financing costs of $20,000, and amortization of note discounts of $161,565.  Changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily included increases in accounts receivable of $111,966 and other assets of $41,433 partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $152,145, an increase in accrued interest of $53,727, an increase in deferred revenues and customer deposits of $90,321.

The net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 reflects a net loss of $458,464, which was increased by the gain on debt extinguishment of $114,551, and partially offset by stock-based compensation of $68,651, and other minor factors.  Changes in operating assets and liabilities included an increase in accounts payable of $172,525, an increase in accrued interest of $33,505, an increase in accrued compensation of $88,400, a decrease in deferred revenues and customer deposits of $40,432, and other minor factors.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $172,340 and $1,605, respectively.  In 2011, we acquired intangible assets (patents and trademarks) totaling $75,001 and also paid $91,153 in cash for the acquisition of Txtstation and Mobivity.


Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $421,548 and $249,897, respectively.  In 2011, we received proceeds of $555,501 from the sale of 370,334 shares of common stock and the issuance of warrants to purchase 370,334 shares at $2.00 per share; and we received $10,000 from the issuance of a 10% Senior Secured Convertible Bridge Note.  In 2011, we paid $97,153 against the principal balance of the note issued in the Mobivity acquisition as well as $25,000 against the cash payment obligation from the Txtstation acquisition.  In 2010, we received contributions from our former parent of $249,897.
 
Future Liquidity Needs
 
We will need to raise significant amounts of additional capital in order to continue to fund our operations, meet our debt service, and execute our acquisition strategy. As a consequence of our continued losses, and resultant net working capital deficiency and accumulated deficit, this raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We commenced a private placement in late March 2011, and believe the process will continue until late September 2011.  As of August 15, 2011, we have raised gross proceeds of $982,968 ($555,501 as of June 30, 2011).  Unless this financing is completed at a level significantly higher than the $982,968 received to date, we will be unable to move forward with our acquisition strategy, the current level of operations and the efficient integration of the two acquisitions completed in April 2011 and the one acquisition completed in August 2011. We believe that the successful execution of our acquisition strategy should make it possible for us to raise additional funds before the end of 2011 and eventually generate sufficient cash flow from operations to reduce our dependence on outside capital sources.
 
Based on our resources at June 30, 2011, current proceeds from the recent private placement transaction and our current level of expenditures, and even assuming that we are not required to settle our $1,010,000 of bridge notes payable by November 2011, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our operations for the next 12 months.  Our actual cash requirements may vary materially from those now planned because of a number of factors, including cash requirements associated with funding the purchase price of, and operations of, acquired businesses, the pursuit or development of products and or services, competitive and technical advances, costs of commercializing any potential products and or services, and costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and any other intellectual property rights. If we are unable to raise additional funds when needed, we may not be able to complete planned acquisitions or develop any products and or services, we could be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our research and development programs and we may need to wind down our operations altogether. Each of these alternatives would have a material adverse effect on our business.

To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity or debt securities, our stockholders may experience additional significant dilution and such financing may involve restrictive covenants. To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our technologies or our products and or services, or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. These things may have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
Additionally, recent global market and economic conditions have been unprecedented and challenging with tighter credit conditions and recession in most major economies. As a result of these market conditions, the cost and availability of credit has been and may continue to be adversely affected by illiquid credit markets and wider credit spreads. Concern about the stability of the markets generally and the strength of counterparties specifically has led many lenders and institutional investors to reduce, and in some cases, cease to provide credit to businesses and consumers. These factors have lead to a decrease in spending by businesses and consumers alike, and a corresponding decrease in global infrastructure spending. Continued turbulence in the U.S. and international markets and economies and prolonged declines in business and consumer spending may adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition, including our ability to access the capital markets to meet liquidity needs.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, as defined by section 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information set forth in this item.


Item 4.
Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of our president (our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, being June 30, 2011. Our president and our chief financial officer evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2011. Based on this evaluation, these officers concluded that, as of June 30, 2011, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.  Management anticipates that our disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until certain material weaknesses are remediated.

In our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011, we determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses which are indicative of many small companies with small staff, such as: 
 
 
(1)
inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and
 
(2)
insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
These control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements could not have been prevented or detected on a timely basis.  As a result of the material weaknesses described above, we concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO, as evidenced, for example, by our failure to file amendments to our Current Reports on Form 8-K to disclose financial results and pro forma financial information in connection with two recent acquisitions. Our management is currently evaluating remediation plans for the above deficiencies.   During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we were not able to remediate the weaknesses described above.  However, in May 2011, we hired a corporate controller and in July 2011 we appointed our new chief financial officer.   Both of these individuals have experience with implementing internal controls and compliance with the requirements and application of both generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  We plan to continue to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. 

Changes in Internal Control

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting described above that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Risk Factors.

Risks Related to our Business

Proceeds from our recent financings will not be sufficient to sustain our operations and we will need to raise additional capital to grow our business.

We anticipate, based on currently proposed plans and assumptions relating to our ability to market and sell our products, that our cash on hand including the proceeds from our recent bridge note financing as well as revenues from operations will not satisfy our operational and capital requirements for the next 12 months. Further, the operation of our business and our efforts to grow our business further both through acquisitions and organically will require significant cash outlays and commitments. The timing and amount of our cash needs may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, including but not limited to:

·  
market acceptance of our mobile marketing and advertising services;
·  
the need to adapt to changing technologies and technical requirements;
·  
the need to adapt to changing regulations requiring changes to our processes or platform; and
·  
the existence and cost of opportunities for expansion through internal growth and acquisitions.
 
Our existing working capital and the proceeds from our recent bridge note and common stock / warrant financings are not sufficient to meet our cash requirements and we will need to seek additional capital, potentially through debt, or equity financings, to fund our growth. We may not be able to raise cash on terms acceptable to us or at all. Financings, if available, may be on terms that are dilutive to our shareholders, and the prices at which new investors would be willing to purchase our securities may be lower than the current price of our ordinary shares. The holders of new securities may also receive rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of existing holders of our ordinary shares. If new sources of financing are required but are insufficient or unavailable, we would be required to modify our growth and operating plans to the extent of available funding, which could harm our ability to grow our business.
 
We may not be successful in executing our acquisition strategy.

Our future growth will largely depend on the successful execution of our acquisition strategy. If we are unable to acquire other companies in the mobile marketing sector, our growth, valuation and prospects will be adversely affected. It is possible that acquisition targets will not be receptive to either the valuation offered or our intention to pay for acquisitions using our common stock as the “currency”. If we are unable to grow other than organically, our growth prospects will be reduced and our ability to raise capital on acceptable terms and the value of our common stock will both be compromised.


In addition, our future acquisitions may be expensive and time-consuming and we may not realize anticipated benefits from them.  The specific risks we may encounter in these types of transactions include the following:
 
·  
Potentially dilutive issuances of our securities, the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities and amortization expenses related to intangible assets, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition;
·  
The possibility that staff or customers of the acquired company might not accept new ownership and may transition to different technologies or attempt to renegotiate contract terms or relationships;
·  
The possibility that the due diligence process in any such acquisition may not completely identify material issues associated with product and service quality, intellectual property issues, key personnel issues or legal and financial contingencies; and
·  
Difficulty in integrating acquired operations due to technology constraints or geographical distance.
 
A failure to successfully integrate acquired businesses for any of these reasons could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
 
We may not have the liquidity to settle our bridge notes at maturity.

Our $1,010,000 principal amount outstanding of bridge notes (plus interest accrued at 10% annually) matures on the earlier of November 2, 2011 or the date on which we complete a financing in excess of $1,262,500.

In addition, we have incurred $1,218,000 in additional debt to fund recent acquisitions with payments that are due over the next 15 months.

There is no certainty that we will have the liquidity necessary to settle our outstanding obligations as they become due, nor is it certain that our creditors will agree to an extension of the maturity date or an accommodation favorable to us. Our obligations under the bridge notes are secured by all of our assets.  In the event we cannot settle our outstanding obligations as they become due or reach an accommodation with our creditors, our operations would be severely jeopardized if not entirely curtailed.

Our sales efforts require significant time and effort and could hinder our ability to expand our customer base and increase revenue.
 
Attracting new customers requires substantial time and expense, especially in an industry that is so heavily dependent on personal relationships with executives.  We cannot assure that we will be successful in establishing new relationships, or maintaining or advancing our current relationships. For example, it may be difficult to identify, engage and market to customers who do not currently perform mobile marketing or advertising or are unfamiliar with our current services or platform.  Further, many of our customers typically require input from one or more internal levels of approval. As a result, during our sales effort, we must identify multiple people involved in the purchasing decision and devote a sufficient amount of time to presenting our products and services to those individuals.  The complexity of our services, including our software-as-a-service model, often requires us to spend substantial time and effort assisting potential customers in evaluating our products and services including providing demonstrations and benchmarking against other available technologies.  We expect that our sales process will become less burdensome as our products and services become more widely known and used.  However, if this change does not occur, we will not be able to expand our sales effort as quickly as anticipated and our sales will be adversely affected.


We may not be able to enhance our mobile marketing and advertising platform to keep pace with technological and market developments, or to remain competitive against potential new entrants in our markets.
 
The market for mobile marketing and advertising services is emerging and is characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, frequent new product introductions and short product life cycles. Our current platform or platforms we may offer in the future may not be acceptable to marketers and advertisers. To keep pace with technological developments, satisfy increasing customer requirements and achieve acceptance of our marketing and advertising campaigns, we will need to enhance our current mobile marketing solutions and continue to develop and introduce on a timely basis new, innovative mobile marketing services offering compatibility, enhanced features and functionality on a timely basis at competitive prices. Our inability, for technological or other reasons, to enhance, develop, introduce and deliver compelling mobile marketing services in a timely manner, or at all, in response to changing market conditions, technologies or customer expectations could have a material adverse effect on our operating results or could result in our mobile marketing services platform becoming obsolete. Our ability to compete successfully will depend in large measure on our ability to maintain a technically skilled development and engineering staff and to adapt to technological changes and advances in the industry, including providing for the continued compatibility of our mobile marketing services platform with evolving industry standards and protocols. In addition, as we believe the mobile marketing market is likely to grow substantially, other companies which are larger and have significantly more capital to invest than us may emerge as competitors. For example, in May 2010, Google, Inc. acquired Admob, Inc. Similarly, in January 2010, Apple, Inc. acquired Quattro Wireless, Inc. New entrants could seek to gain market share by introducing new technology or reducing pricing. This may make it more difficult for us to sell our products and services, and could result in increased pricing pressure, reduced profit margins, increased sales and marketing expenses or the loss of market share or expected market share, any of which may significantly harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our customer contracts lack uniformity and often are complex, which subjects us to business and other risks.

Our customers include some of the largest enterprises which have substantial purchasing power and negotiating leverage. As a result, we typically negotiate contracts on a customer-by-customer basis and our contracts lack uniformity and are often complex. If we are unable to effectively negotiate, enforce and account and bill in an accurate and timely manner for contracts with our key customers, our business and operating results may be adversely affected.  In addition, we could be unable to timely recognize revenue from contracts that are not managed effectively and this would further adversely impact our financial results.
 
Our services are provided on mobile communications networks that are owned and operated by third parties who we do not control and the failure of any of these networks would adversely affect our ability to deliver our services to our customers.

Our mobile marketing and advertising platform is dependent on the reliability of mobile operators who maintain sophisticated and complex mobile networks. Such mobile networks have historically, and particularly in recent years, been subject to both rapid growth and technological change. If the network of a mobile operator with which we are integrated should fail, including because of new technology incompatibility, the degradation of network performance under the strain of too many mobile consumers using it, or a general failure from natural disaster or political or regulatory shut-down, we will not be able provide our services to our customers through such mobile network. This in turn, would impair our reputation and business, potentially resulting in a material, adverse effect on our financial results.


If our mobile marketing and advertising services platform does not scale as anticipated, our business will be harmed.

We must be able to continue to scale to support potential ongoing substantial increases in the number of users in our actual commercial environment, and maintain a stable service infrastructure and reliable service delivery for our mobile marketing and advertising campaigns. In addition, we must continue to expand our service infrastructure to handle growth in customers and usage. If our mobile marketing services platform does not efficiently and effectively scale to support and manage a substantial increase in the number of users while maintaining a high level of performance, the quality of our services could decline and our business will be seriously harmed. In addition, if we are unable to secure data center space with appropriate power, cooling and bandwidth capacity, we may not be able to efficiently and effectively scale our business to manage the addition of new customers and overall mobile marketing campaigns.

The success of our business depends, in part, on wireless carriers continuing to accept our customers' messages for delivery to their subscriber base.

We depend on wireless carriers to deliver our customers' messages to their subscriber base. Wireless carriers often impose standards of conduct or practice that significantly exceed current legal requirements and potentially classify our messages as "spam," even where we do not agree with that conclusion. In addition, the wireless carriers use technical and other measures to attempt to block non-compliant senders from transmitting messages to their customers; for example, wireless carriers block short codes or Internet Protocol addresses associated with those senders. There can be no guarantee that we, or short codes registered to us, will not be blocked or blacklisted or that we will be able to successfully remove ourselves from those lists. Although our services typically require customers to opt-in to a campaign, minimizing the risk that our customers' messages will be characterized as spam, blocking of this type could interfere with our ability to market products and services of our customers and communicate with end users and could undermine the effectiveness of our customers' marketing campaigns. To date we have not experienced any material blocking of our messages by wireless carriers, but any such blocking could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We depend on third party providers for a reliable Internet infrastructure and the failure of these third parties, or the Internet in general, for any reason would significantly impair our ability to conduct our business.

We outsource all of our data center facility management to third parties who host the actual servers and provide power and security in multiple data centers in each geographic location. These third party facilities require uninterrupted access to the Internet.  If the operation of our servers is interrupted for any reason, including natural disaster, financial insolvency of a third party provider, or malicious electronic intrusion into the data center, our business would be significantly damaged.  As has occurred with many Internet-based businesses, on occasion in the past, we have been subject to "denial-of-service" attacks in which unknown individuals bombarded our computer servers with requests for data, thereby degrading the servers' performance. While we have historically been successful in relatively quickly identifying and neutralizing these attacks, we cannot be certain that we will be able to do so in the future. If either a third party facility failed, or our ability to access the Internet was interfered with because of the failure of Internet equipment in general or we become subject to malicious attacks of computer intruders, our business and operating results will be materially adversely affected.

Failure to adequately manage our growth may seriously harm our business.

We operate in an emerging technology market and have experienced, and may continue to experience, significant growth in our business. If we do not effectively manage our growth, the quality of our products and services may suffer, which could negatively affect our brand and operating results. Our growth has placed, and is expected to continue to place, a significant strain on our managerial, administrative, operational and financial resources and our infrastructure. Our future success will depend, in part, upon the ability of our senior management to manage growth effectively. This will require us to, among other things:

 
·  
implement additional management information systems;
·  
further develop our operating, administrative, legal, financial and accounting systems and controls;
·  
hire additional personnel;
·  
develop additional levels of management within our company;
·  
locate additional office space in various countries; and
·  
maintain close coordination among our engineering, operations, legal, finance, sales and marketing and customer service and support organizations.
 
Moreover, as our sales increase, we may be required to concurrently deploy our services infrastructure at multiple additional locations or provide increased levels of customization. As a result, we may lack the resources to deploy our mobile marketing services on a timely and cost-effective basis. Failure to accomplish any of these requirements would seriously harm our ability to deliver our mobile marketing services platform in a timely fashion, fulfill existing customer commitments or attract and retain new customers.

We depend on the services of key personnel to implement our strategy. If we lose the services of our key personnel or are unable to attract and retain other qualified personnel, we may be unable to implement our strategy.

We believe that the future success of our business depends on the services of a number of key management and operating personnel, including Dennis Becker, our Chief Executive Officer, Alex Shah, our Chief Technology Officer, and Brad Morrow, our Vice President of Product Management. We currently have an employment agreement in place with Mr. Becker.  We do not maintain any key-person life insurance policies. Some of these key employees have strong relationships with our customers and our business may be harmed if these employees leave us. The loss of members of our key management and certain other members of our operating personnel could materially adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

In addition, our ability to manage our growth depends, in part, on our ability to identify, hire and retain additional qualified employees, including a technically skilled development and engineering staff. We face intense competition for qualified individuals from numerous technology, marketing and mobile software and service companies.  We require a mix of highly talented engineers as well as individuals in sales and support who are familiar with the marketing and advertising industry. In addition, new hires in sales positions require significant training and may, in some cases, take more than a year before they achieve full productivity. Our recent sales force hires and planned hires may not become as productive as we would like, and we may be unable to hire sufficient numbers of qualified individuals in the future in the markets where we do business.  Further, given the rapid pace of our expansion to date, we may be unable to attract and retain suitably qualified individuals who are capable of meeting our growing, creative, operational and managerial requirements, or may be required to pay increased compensation in order to do so. If we are unsuccessful in attracting and retaining these key personnel, our ability to operate our business effectively would be negatively impacted and our business, operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected.

The gathering, transmission, storage and sharing or use of personal information could give rise to liabilities or additional costs of operation as a result of governmental regulation, legal requirements, civil actions or differing views of personal privacy rights.

We transmit and store a large volume of personal information in the course of providing our services. Federal, state and international laws and regulations govern the collection, use, retention, sharing and security of data that we receive from our customers and their users. Any failure, or perceived failure, by us to comply with U.S. federal, state, or international privacy or consumer protection-related laws, regulations or industry self-regulatory principles could result in proceedings or actions against us by governmental entities or others, which could potentially have an adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Additionally, we may also be contractually liable to indemnify and hold harmless our customers from the costs or consequences of inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure of their customers' personal data which we store or handle as part of providing our services.


The interpretation and application of privacy, data protection and data retention laws and regulations are currently unsettled in the U.S. and internationally, particularly with regard to location-based services, use of customer data to target advertisements and communication with consumers via mobile devices. Such laws may be interpreted and applied inconsistently from country to country and inconsistently with our current data protection policies and practices. Complying with these varying international requirements could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business practices in a manner adverse to our business, operating results or financial condition.

As privacy and data protection have become more sensitive issues, we may also become exposed to potential liabilities as a result of differing views on the privacy of personal information. These and other privacy concerns, including security breaches, could adversely impact our business, operating results and financial condition.

In the U.S., we have voluntarily agreed to comply with wireless carrier technological and other requirements for access to their customers' mobile devices, and also trade association guidelines and codes of conduct addressing the provision of location-based services, delivery of promotional content to mobile devices and tracking of users or devices for the purpose of delivering targeted advertising. We could be adversely affected by changes to these requirements, guidelines and codes, including in ways that are inconsistent with our practices or in conflict with the rules or guidelines in other jurisdictions.

Our management team has limited experience in public company matters, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

Our management team, with the exception of our Chief Financial Officer, has only limited public company management experience or responsibilities, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and applicable federal securities laws including filing required reports and other information required on a timely basis. There can be no assurance that our management will be able to implement and affect programs and policies in an effective and timely manner that adequately respond to increased legal, regulatory compliance and reporting requirements imposed by such laws and regulations. Our failure to comply with such laws and regulations could lead to the imposition of fines and penalties and further result in the deterioration of our business.

Risks Related to our Common Stock

There has been a limited trading market for our common stock.

There has been a limited trading market for our common stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board.  The lack of an active market may impair the ability to sell your shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable. The lack of an active market may also reduce the fair market value of your shares. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock and may impair our ability to acquire other companies or technologies by using common stock as consideration.

You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our common stock.

Our common stock may not be actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our common stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board may fluctuate widely. As a result, investors may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the common stock, and would likely reduce the market price of our common stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital.
 

The market price of our common stock may be, and is likely to continue to be, highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including:
 
·  
dilution caused by our issuance of additional shares of common stock and other forms of equity securities, which we expect to make in connection with future acquisitions or capital financings to fund our operations and growth, to attract and retain valuable personnel and in connection with future strategic partnerships with other companies;
·  
announcements of new acquisitions or other business initiatives by our competitors;
·  
our ability to take advantage of new acquisitions or other business initiatives;
·  
quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses;
·  
changes in the valuation of similarly situated companies, both in our industry and in other industries;
·  
changes in analysts’ estimates affecting us, our competitors and/or our industry;
·  
changes in the accounting methods used in or otherwise affecting our industry;
·  
additions and departures of key personnel;
·  
announcements by relevant governments pertaining to additional quota restrictions; and
·  
fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of capital in the capital markets.

These and other factors are largely beyond our control, and the impact of these risks, singly or in the aggregate, may result in material adverse changes to the market price of our common stock and/or our results of operations and financial condition.

Our operating results may fluctuate significantly, and these fluctuations may cause our stock price to decline.

Our operating results will likely vary in the future primarily as the result of fluctuations in our revenues and operating expenses, expenses that we incur, prices of feed used in our business, the price that customer are willing and able to pay for our products and other factors. If our results of operations do not meet the expectations of current or potential investors, the price of our common stock may decline.

We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We do not intend to declare dividends for the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will reinvest any future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, investors will not receive any funds unless they sell their common stock, and stockholders may be unable to sell their shares on favorable terms or at all. Investors cannot be assured of a positive return on investment or that they will not lose the entire amount of their investment in the common stock.

Our directors and officers will have a high concentration of common stock ownership.

Based on the 21.5 million shares of common stock that are outstanding as of June 30, 2011, our officers and directors will beneficially own approximately 35.7% of our outstanding common stock.  Such a high level of ownership by such persons may have a significant effect in delaying, deferring or preventing any potential change in control of our company.  Additionally, as a result of their high level of ownership, our officers and directors might be able to strongly influence the actions of our board of directors and the outcome of actions brought to our shareholders for approval. Such a high level of ownership may adversely affect the voting and other rights of our shareholders.


Applicable SEC rules governing the trading of “penny stocks” limit the trading and liquidity of our common stock, which may affect the trading price of our common stock.

Shares of common stock may be considered a “penny stock” and be subject to SEC rules and regulations which impose limitations upon the manner in which such shares may be publicly traded and regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules which may increase the difficulty investors may experience in attempting to liquidate such securities.

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company sold 230,334 shares of common stock at $1.50 per share for cash and issued four-year warrants to purchase 230,334 shares of common stock at $2.00 per share to an accredited investor.  Both the common shares and the warrant contain anti-dilutive, or down round, price protection.  The down round protection for the common shares terminates on the early of the date on which an effective registration statement is filed with the SEC covering the shares, or the shares become freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.  The down round protection for the warrants terminates when the warrants expire or are exercised.  The proceeds will be used as working capital.
